    Thumbs up Built a crane to go with the diesel train

    Needed to build some cars to go with my newest train.
    Here's the blog.
    Toy costruction #89: railway breakdown crane #1 - by htl @ LumberJocks.com ~ woodworking community

    Oak and walnut, this is a scratch build from a picture.
    All my cars use 1" wheels so take the picture and blow it up till the wheels are 1" and take the measurements off the picture, this helps keeps the scale close.
